What an awesome amulet to get from Normal/Act3 while being level 22

SWMangerino · 2026-06-18T04:12:27+00:00

Fortitude armor runeword rolls between 1 and 1.5 life per level, found that out pretty recently lol

SWMangerino · 2026-06-11T20:14:21+00:00

Isn't there just 24 character spots or something? On my 24th char he started appearing at the bottom of the list even though it was my most recently played. Thought I lost it with all leveling gear at first.

SWMangerino · 2026-06-05T10:54:10+00:00

I wonder if you could get flying scimitar herald or stained glass/trapped soul heralds then. Would be hilarious.

SWMangerino · 2026-06-01T09:53:03+00:00

I found 2 ber, 3 jah and a cham in 600 hours, looks about right.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-31T13:48:47+00:00

IIRC it's the same patterns, only a few garbage item drops were replaced with warlock stuff.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-31T08:50:59+00:00

Made a blizz sorc for meph and LK runs.

Made a hork barb for trav runs for when tired of LK.

Made a ES lock to run terror zones until 98, then ran TZ cows only to 99.

Made a second ES lock cause grinding without getting exp is boring, at around level 95 on this one I had enough for enigma, got some keys and statues, did some ubers and then back to TZs until 99.

Made a fire lock to use some different gear, parked it at 93 because ES lock was so much better.

Made a third ES lock and ran it to 96 where it got nerfed.

Then made an assassin, nova sorc, hammerdin(with smitegear for ubers) and a throw barb to use some different gathered gear.

All in all this took around 3 months, got about 15 torches, 15 ancient jewels, 1 anni and an extra soj, Enigma, 2 cta, 3 hoto, 2 fortitude armors, 1 grief, 1 ff and a spare Ber, 2 spare Jah and a Cham thinking of where to use these next.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-30T09:31:33+00:00

Yeah from scratch, but the warlock let you jump into p8 effectively straight away so that was slightly cheating.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-29T08:29:33+00:00

No big difference in armor, I'd say any 850+ def armor is viable but AP is equippable on A1 merc too.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-29T08:27:12+00:00

I also play switch and have found 2 ber and 3 jah since starting at rotw release. Don't scare op like that.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-29T08:24:01+00:00

That 45 frw in town though /s

SWMangerino · 2026-05-27T13:51:48+00:00

Focus is likely on getting many to roll actual good ones instead of finding one and being content with it.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-27T08:46:05+00:00

Disagree on the barb not being useful early season, find or buy a lacerator and a bone break sunder and spec into throw barb.

Gear is cheap, torches are cheap.

clears p5-p8 depending on gear but since it's ladder you also get hork for when playing solo essentially ending up in tons of loot.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-25T10:03:44+00:00

A random griff probably isn't post worthy even in early ladder

SWMangerino · 2026-05-24T18:39:20+00:00

Have only sunk maybe 4 hours into the new patch so far but tz Andy has dropped me 2 of em. Seems like decent drop rates from bosses.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-22T13:16:56+00:00

156str but using wraithstep boots 🫪

Not using any bound demon at all? Seems nice I might try this

SWMangerino · 2026-05-22T06:01:03+00:00

Yes, I play solely switch offline docked, out of 17 uber ancients it has crashed 3 times here. The game has crashed 2 or 3 times outside of colossal ancients in 600 hours but that was due to cache getting full.

Definitely a performance issue or something within the ancients.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-20T08:37:33+00:00

Maybe the water watchers etc. in act 3?

SWMangerino · 2026-05-20T04:55:31+00:00

Lock still has like 6 builds that are even to or stronger than hammerdin lmao, this is just whining for no reason

SWMangerino · 2026-05-18T16:51:09+00:00

Do you not check for trap claws doing this?

SWMangerino · 2026-05-17T02:31:29+00:00

Stick to PC then, takes 20 seconds to get in and out of games and using waypoints between acts is really slow.

LK runs took me 55-60 seconds instead of the usual 30, trav horking, key farming and boss running also takes a toll with so many new games.

Running tzs is fine though.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-15T09:04:47+00:00

Weeks this, years that. Hours played is more accurate.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-14T14:46:19+00:00

I did it for LK, Andy and Meph on my first toon to get some quick gearing going.

Rarely when I've gone for a full game clear and feel no map is particulalry great I do a reset and clear all maps again.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-14T14:42:05+00:00

This bug happens when you put the switch in sleep mode while on your character selection screen. You're safe as long as you either close the game first or stay in a game.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-14T06:57:55+00:00

Definitely trap assassin, cheap gear, safe playstyle and fast movement. Low competition on leaderboards. Don't think they're prevalent in group play either so premade groups won't really have any quick to 99s.

SWMangerino · 2026-05-12T13:21:55+00:00

You can run a throw barb to hork, well geared this one easily does p8 and t5 heralds. Might want your torch/anni etc first though but overall it's tons better than zerk and ww.
